I have got this error after updating system using WSUS Offline utility,after successful update system restarts And the login screen by default shows the username of WOUTempAdmin. Not a big deal as I can log in with my admin account. But still a pain.

to fix this issue you have to follow the steps:

Press "Windows Key" and "R"

type "regedit" press Ok

Run "regedit" this will open Registry Editor

Note* Be careful when editing the registry. Don’t go into the registry editor and delete anything or change a setting unless you know exactly what you’re doing. If you do know what you’re doing and are careful to modify only the correct values, you shouldn’t have any problems. However, if you start deleting folders (known as “registry keys”) or modifying other values, you could seriously damage your Windows installation. When using the registry editor, always bear this warning in mind.

Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Change DefaultUserName to your default user for eg: Administrator , i have used fragadmin0608 instead of Administrator this may vary

then within the registry you can find AutoAdminLogon
